Mark Rademaker, working with Dr. White of NASA Eagleworks has created a vision of a EMDrive powered solar system explorer ship.

IXS Clark

10 of 20 EMDrive pods

Based on Dr. Whites other data, IXS Clark data is:

1) 90t or 90,000kgs

2) 2MWe nuclear generator in the aft section of the ship. That is a max electricity availability of 2MWh of electricity every hour or 2,000kWh per hour.

3) 20 EMDrive propellantless force generators rated at 4N of force generation per kW of applied microwave power. (4N/kW) Each of the 20 EMDrives (100kW energy usage each) will probably be driven by its own dual redundant 2 x 100kW microwave Rf generators.

4) Total force generation of 8,000N being 2,000 kW of power at 4N per kW. 2,000kW * 4N/kW = 8,000 Newtons of force to drive the 90t ship. 8,000N is approx 816kg of force.

5) Continual acceleration will then be A = F/M or 0.088g = 8,000N/90,000kgs

6) The ISX Clark's 90t breaks down as follows: 50t cargo, 20t EMDrives and support systems (microwave generators, cooling, etc), 20t nuclear generator.

Which means that as long as the nuclear generator on the IXS Clark can generate 2,000kW of electricity, the ship will continue to accelerate at 0.088g


CofE velocity violation Paradox

Dr White has made mention of the CofE Paradox in:

Human Outer Solar System Exploration via Q-Thruster Technology

Please review Appendix A "Analysis of Conservation of Energy for Interplanetary Space Missions using Electric Propulsion"

which shows an conventional Ion drive accelerated spacecraft can experience the CofE velocity violation Paradox. This shows the Paradox is NOT UNIQUE to the EMDrive and thus can't be used to say the EMDrive can't work as it will violate CofE as the same thing can be said for Ion drives which can also experience the CofE velocity violation Paradox.


These are the potential voyages of the IXS Clark

Please use the right hand 4N/kW transit examples.
